The cot is prefect for travel, compact but on the heavier side. There is no handle on the carry bag which would make life a little easier. The only down side is it is loud when there is movement on it. We had it set up in our room and anytime she would move it would wake me up, the sheet that comes with it is a waterproof sheet not bed sheet. Will try to cover it with a crib mattress sheet next time I use it. Otherwise it's a great product and I will be getting at least 2 if not 3 more for the places we travel frequently since the cost is very reasonable.

I'm a big reader of reviews, I find you can never trust the star rating especially since people sometimes rate things they don't own "5 stars - this looks really cute!", or give things 1 star because they can't read the description. I already owned one of these and was contemplating buying one for my daughter. Our existing one has the strap in the center, and manufacture date of OCT-2010. After reading the reviews, I was confused because some state "the older one was better" and visa versa, so I wasn't sure which was the newer model, but decided to risk it and buy a second one. I picked up a second one at my local Walmart in blue, and was happy to see that the strap has been REMOVED in the newer models, this particular one had a manufacture date of SEP-2012. We then ordered another one in pink for my daughter. Happily when it arrived at the store, it also had a 2012 date, and was of the newer design. If you purchase one and it has the strap across the center, return it and see if you can exchange it for a newer one. (Walmart was happy to return my older blue one for me.) The manufacture date is on a sticker on the outside of the box. So to clarify, the company has updated this product and improved upon it. No more annoying middle strap. ----------- After having purchased three of these in total, I have to say my kids (2 & 3) LOVE them. We purchased a Foam Mattress Topper in a Full, cut it in half, and put it under the fitted sheet for extra comfort. Well worth the $11 it cost at Walmart. The kids nap on them, relax and watch TV on them, even stopped hopping into bed with us at night, and instead will sleep on these in our bedroom. They refuse to let me put them away. We're headed on a 20 hour car trip next month and have differing accommodations, so these cots will work perfectly for the cabin, house, and hotel room. This is an excellent purchase, and it's a great value for the money. I am so glad I risked buying a second (and third) one to find that the design has been modified.

We purchased this for our 19 month old after seeing the price and seeing how well she had slept on something similar at daycare. We loaned it to our nanny to use during the day with her and our little one has been sleeping wonderfully since switching from the pack and play. We're all amazed. It's nice and portable and we plan on taking it with us when we travel.

I purchased this travel cot for my 4yr daughter for our trip to my sisters place. She was really excited about it and was looking forward to sleep in it. I would definitely put a comforter on it so it would be soft and comfortable. This cot is the perfect size and what I like the best is that it folds up so easily and opens up in minutes. Doesn't take up space for storage, can be used for sleep overs. My daughter even asked to take a nap on her cot when she were at my sisters. She slept very well and never complained. I am glad I got this, it is definitely a keep.

My daughter is 2 1/2 yrs old and she absolutely LOVES her travel cot. It is nice, compact and low to the floor, so no need to worry about a nasty fall! The fitted sheet that comes with it is ok, but everything else is fantastic! This can be used up to 5yrs of age OR 75lbs....lots of usage time. Going to order another for my little boy! It is a must have!!

I like the cot. It is light, easy to set up, and my son sleeps pretty well on it. It doesn't look like it would be very confortable, he kinda sinks down in a little bit, but he seems to sleep ok on it. The sheet is a little tight fitting and causes it to start to fold up a little when you first put it on, but it stretches back out when they lay on it. It's been good for us so far, we've used it twice. Once for a nap and once for an overnight.

This cot it so great. We travel to a lot of Rabbit/Guinea Pig shows and my 5 year old gets very tired. This is so perfect for her to take a nap on there or anywhere. It opens and folds very easily, even your child can do it! The sheet is an added bonus! I am planning on hanging on to this forever. It will come in handy for sleep overs, hotel stays, staying at Grandma's, etc. For the price, you can't go wrong. Everyone should have one of these in their home!

This cot is an excellent product for travelers who wants their babies and toddlers to sleep as queens and kings everywhere they go. Our toddler loved it and I ordered two more for grandma and auntie's house. Easy to carry, soft, washable and for the price is a great buy. We love it! and highly recommend it.

I am happy with the quality of this product. It will be a novelty for my young grand daughter (when she is out of her crib) to sleep on in her own room at my house. The light weight construction makes it easy to set up and even easier for her to move it. I bought two, one for her to use when she is at home with mom and dad, but just wants to lay down in the common area. It will also come in handy for "camping", either in the playhouse in the back yard or while actually at the campground. i would suggest padding the bed part for children at the top of the weight limit, because of the bar that crosses under the bed part. For smaller children it seems not to be an issue.

I purchased this folding cot for our four year old grandson to use during our recent vacation. He weighs forty five pounds and is forty four inches tall. It worked great for him. He was comfortable and it fit easily next to his parents bed in the hotel room. It folds up very small and has a carrying case that makes it extremely easy to pack. Set up was a breeze. I don't think an adult could use this cot but it works great for a child.
